00:00:47.104 --> 00:00:53.411
It is my honor to welcome back to the show world-renowned host of the Cosmic Scene with Jill Jardine.

00:00:53.411 --> 00:01:08.019
Famous astrologer Jill Jardine Hi Jill, hey Keri.

00:01:08.019 --> 00:01:09.745
So glad to be back on Shot at love, so great to have you here.

00:01:09.745 --> 00:01:16.647
So in the early part of January 2024, you shared predictions for the first trimester of the year, so you gave us a roadmap for navigating the astrological influences on love and relationships.

00:01:16.647 --> 00:01:23.587
Now you spoke about this cosmic party that was really going to happen when sun went into Aquarius in February.

00:01:23.587 --> 00:01:29.870
But I didn't really experience any of that and I feel like things have been slow moving since January.

00:01:29.870 --> 00:01:31.906
People have been having a really hard time.

00:01:31.906 --> 00:01:33.965
What are you seeing?

00:01:33.965 --> 00:01:40.134
You did mention the big celestial event that would be in effect until 2044.

00:01:40.134 --> 00:01:43.530
Take us up to speed and tell us what's been happening.

00:01:44.379 --> 00:01:47.975
Okay, we did get kind of a interesting start to the year.

00:01:47.975 --> 00:01:49.000
Astrologically.

00:01:49.000 --> 00:01:59.966
I did look at February as being a very busy month because we were having a stellium, which means several planets together in the sign Aquarius, and then in March they were all moving to Pisces.

00:01:59.966 --> 00:02:07.284
So Aquarius is the sign of the future and Pisces is a sign of divine love.

00:02:07.284 --> 00:02:26.039
But what was going on in the beginning of 2024, really leading up until the eclipses March 25th lunar eclipse in Libra and the big heralded solar eclipse of April 8th in Aries, which were turning points, and we're still kind of reeling from that, but leading into those.

00:02:26.039 --> 00:02:32.674
So basically the first three months of the year, we had people just completing processes.

00:02:32.674 --> 00:02:36.330
There was a lot of integration, a lot of release.

00:02:36.330 --> 00:02:54.242
I've noticed that people are busy letting go, releasing, courtesy of the Pluto in Aquarius, which kicked in on January 20th and goes for 40 years until 2044, things were very interesting because there didn't seem like there was a lot of outer movement.

00:02:54.242 --> 00:02:56.848
There was a lot of internal work being done.

00:02:56.848 --> 00:03:02.169
A lot of people just weren't into trying to get a new relationship or making a connection.

00:03:02.169 --> 00:03:04.933
They were more about let me release the past.

00:03:04.933 --> 00:03:09.251
Let me release the past, and that energy is still quite there.

00:03:09.251 --> 00:03:12.439
But we had a solar eclipse, which is a new moon.

00:03:12.439 --> 00:03:21.507
It was in Aries, the first sign of the Zodiac, on April 8th, the great American eclipse that everybody was looking at with their eclipse glasses.

00:03:21.507 --> 00:03:28.806
But because it was a new moon that was eclipsed, it's going to take a couple weeks for us to really feel the benefits from it.

00:03:28.806 --> 00:03:45.437
In fact, when you have lunations that are eclipsed, such as that full moon in Libra on March 25th and the new moon one on April 8th, you do have to wait a couple weeks, ie until the next lunation, which in this case would be the Scorpio full moon on April 23rd.

00:03:45.437 --> 00:03:54.433
I think we might start seeing things start to move after that, and then we have a new moon on May 7th in Taurus.

00:03:54.433 --> 00:04:10.389
So this is sort of the jumpstart and kick it up after these intense transits that went on the eclipses and the other thing we need to know about the eclipse on March 25th it was in the sign Libra, which is about relationship.

00:04:10.389 --> 00:04:18.833
So I predicted that a lot of relationships are going to continue to unravel due to them being eclipsed with a full moon in Libra.

00:04:19.341 --> 00:04:20.064
And then what Aries is doing?

00:04:20.064 --> 00:04:22.009
All the Aries energy and the eclipse the solar new moon, solar eclipse, new moon in Aries.

00:04:22.009 --> 00:04:23.233
A lot of people are ready to make some new beginnings.

00:04:23.233 --> 00:04:26.122
Aries is doing all the Aries energy and the eclipse the solar new moon, solar eclipse, new moon in Aries.

00:04:26.122 --> 00:04:29.531
A lot of people are ready to make some new beginnings.

00:04:29.531 --> 00:04:31.045
Aries, first sign of the zodiac.

00:04:31.045 --> 00:04:56.654
So there's a lot of energy where release, release release Pluto, the great purifier and purger, had people purifying and clearing house and I think we're going to see some planetary energies kick up the connectivity factor as we get into spring, may and June, and then the summer, july and August.

00:04:56.654 --> 00:05:03.401
And I'm going to talk about what's going on basically from mid-April here until the beginning of September.

00:05:04.024 --> 00:05:05.668
This is a big energetic shift.

00:05:05.668 --> 00:05:07.601
That energy was pretty intense.

00:05:07.601 --> 00:05:14.923
Instead of looking at it as a negative thing, how can we use it as a positive shift?

00:05:14.923 --> 00:05:17.627
It was a big deal because it was in Aries.

00:05:17.627 --> 00:05:27.605
So Aries is the element of fire, right, yeah, so wouldn't that make sense that the universe is like primed for fire and passion and love and all those things?

00:05:28.007 --> 00:05:40.908
It amazed me as an astrologer of over 30 years professionally, where I've worked with eclipses all these years and so have many other astrologers, and it was amazing the collective attention to this one.

00:05:40.908 --> 00:05:42.853
Yeah, it was big, but we had some big ones.

00:05:42.853 --> 00:05:46.601
We had some blood moon eclipses in 2015 and 2016.

00:05:46.601 --> 00:05:52.091
And something people don't realize that eclipses are harbingers of change.

00:05:52.091 --> 00:05:54.603
And look what happened in the United States.

00:05:54.603 --> 00:05:57.072
There was a regime change in 2016.

00:05:57.072 --> 00:06:01.603
And so I think we're going to see similar big changes, but the eclipse fallout goes on for three months after an eclipse.

00:06:01.603 --> 00:06:04.708
Big changes, but the eclipse fallout goes on for three months after an eclipse.

00:06:04.708 --> 00:06:10.154
We have two eclipses, a solar and a lunar, twice a year and they're six months apart.

00:06:10.154 --> 00:06:23.194
This one was a big deal because the alt media and the regular media and basically social media got a hold of it and really blew it up, but it was a big event because of the ability to view it.

00:06:23.194 --> 00:06:30.836
So we always have eclipses every six months, but they're not visible and they don't necessarily fall across the path of the United States.

00:06:30.836 --> 00:06:34.444
So there was another big US one in 2017 as well.

00:06:34.444 --> 00:06:37.432
So we have some that are called blood moon eclipses.

00:06:37.851 --> 00:06:42.012
That was the series that was going on in 2015, 2016 and 2017.

00:06:42.012 --> 00:06:49.706
And I mean they precursed a lot of shifts, including, I think the 2017 one was precursing covid coming, you know, major collective shifts.

00:06:49.706 --> 00:06:53.322
So we do have two more coming this year, 2024.

00:06:53.322 --> 00:07:01.024
We're going to have a lunar eclipse in september, september 17th, and it's going to be a full moon in the sign pisces.

00:07:01.024 --> 00:07:09.730
So we're switching out of the Libra Aries, but then the solar eclipse in that series is going to be on October 2nd and that's again in Libra.

00:07:09.730 --> 00:07:16.911
So again it's going to be affecting relationships and eclipses tend to be in the same polarity of signs.

00:07:17.211 --> 00:07:20.504
For a year and a half or 18 months You'll have a series of eclipses.

00:07:20.504 --> 00:07:36.882
So during 2022 to 2023, they were in the signs of Taurus and Scorpio, affecting money and financial and economics, and we saw the economy take a downturn and rates go up and mortgage rates go up and the real estate market come to a halt.

00:07:36.882 --> 00:07:50.836
So now we started this series Libra Aries eclipse is back last spring of 2023, and they will go until spring of 2025.

00:07:50.836 --> 00:07:56.983
Basically, what we have to be aware of is that there's fallout for the three months after and that's when the big changes come.

00:07:56.983 --> 00:08:00.572
So from April 8th to about July 8th.

00:08:00.572 --> 00:08:01.821
We're going to see a lot of changes.

00:08:01.821 --> 00:08:08.814
That's the time to jumpstart your new start, but in this case, wait until Mercury goes direct after April 25th.

00:08:14.980 --> 00:08:15.620
What can we do with this energy?

00:08:15.620 --> 00:08:17.084
So this major eclipse was also in the midst of Mercury in retrograde.

00:08:17.084 --> 00:08:17.886
That was another element.

00:08:17.886 --> 00:08:20.750
But Mercury in retrograde shakes things up.

00:08:20.750 --> 00:08:24.762
It forces us to tap into our intuition.

00:08:24.762 --> 00:08:28.093
Maybe it's a great time for creativity.

00:08:28.093 --> 00:08:31.954
You can look at alternative ways of meeting people.

00:08:31.954 --> 00:08:40.035
Most of the time when people talk about Mercury in retrograde and it's you know, you see the t-shirts and you see the social media memes and all those things.

00:08:40.035 --> 00:08:48.634
I don't want to look at it as a negative and that it's just going to be communication issues and delays with travel and all those things.

00:08:48.634 --> 00:08:55.115
I think there's a lot of ways that we can make the Mercury in retro energy work for us in a positive way.

00:08:55.544 --> 00:09:01.517
Oh, yes, that's very true and it's funny because I almost feel like Mercury retrograde was eclipsed by the eclipse.

00:09:01.517 --> 00:09:10.078
Yes, it is the most popular astrological phenomena that has shown up in popular parlance.

00:09:10.078 --> 00:09:10.779
You're right.

00:09:10.779 --> 00:09:15.149
You get shirts and hats that say don't blame me, mercury was retrograde.

00:09:15.149 --> 00:09:20.996
But now I think the public awareness of eclipses as an astrological phenomenon, so I like that as an astrologer.

00:09:21.057 --> 00:09:23.605
But we can always use mercury retrograde.

00:09:23.605 --> 00:09:30.232
It's so good for inner work, for doing any kind of inner work, as you said, creative work, but all the RE words, anything that begins with like re.

00:09:30.232 --> 00:09:37.534
Like you said, creative work, but all the R E words, anything that begins with like re, like reorganize, reassess, review, revisit.

00:09:37.534 --> 00:09:42.489
It's really good time to go back to things that we haven't.

00:09:42.489 --> 00:09:50.250
That being said, there is also the possibility of recycling the X's, but we don't want you to do that.

00:09:50.610 --> 00:10:00.870
I just had to laugh because you know I had met somebody during a Mercury retrograde at one point and then every Mercury retrograde for the next year, that same person would.

00:10:00.870 --> 00:10:03.988
He would get back in touch with me and he doesn't know astrology.

00:10:03.988 --> 00:10:05.032
And I just laughed.

00:10:05.032 --> 00:10:07.421
I'm like this is astrology at its finest.

00:10:07.421 --> 00:10:10.174
I met him in a Mercury retrograde so it didn't take off.

00:10:10.174 --> 00:10:20.410
But then every Mercury retrograde, since he reaches out to me when I haven't heard from him for three months at a time, and Mercury retrograde tends to come every three months.

00:10:20.410 --> 00:10:27.293
So yeah, you can hear from the Xs or those ones that were false starts that didn't get off the ground.

00:10:27.293 --> 00:10:34.149
But again, I've learned from my own experience it's probably not good to start a relationship in Mercury Retrograde.

00:10:34.149 --> 00:10:38.586
It may not kick off, it may have a failure to launch, so to speak.

00:10:39.027 --> 00:10:42.013
Why is it important to focus on these?

00:10:42.013 --> 00:10:45.418
Redefine, review, the RE words, the realign.

00:10:45.418 --> 00:10:54.500
It's really hard to pull in somebody new if you haven't done the work and really figured out and are really clear about what you want to pull in.

00:10:54.500 --> 00:11:01.418
The failure to launch you just mentioned is because you can't be in that energy of I'll take whatever, right.

00:11:01.418 --> 00:11:02.951
Okay, the past is the past.

00:11:02.951 --> 00:11:04.289
I've made these mistakes.

00:11:04.289 --> 00:11:06.352
I've chosen these types of people.

00:11:06.352 --> 00:11:08.129
What do I want to pull in?

00:11:08.129 --> 00:11:11.351
That's different now, who do I want to become?

00:11:11.351 --> 00:11:13.994
Who is this new person I'm going to step into?

00:11:13.994 --> 00:11:19.169
And I think once you get really clear and you do that in a work, it's a really good time to do that.

00:11:19.370 --> 00:11:20.475
Especially with it in Aries.

00:11:20.475 --> 00:11:24.255
Mercury is in Aries and retrograde in Aries until the 25th.

00:11:24.255 --> 00:11:29.355
It actually is in Aries, though, all the way through May 15th, 2024.

00:11:29.355 --> 00:11:37.552
So it will be direct from the 25th through May 15th, and that's actually a good time to launch something relationship-wise or anything new.

00:11:37.552 --> 00:11:47.214
After it goes direct and it's in that first sign of the Zodiac, but Aries is the sign of self, so there has been a lot of attention about it.

00:11:47.214 --> 00:11:50.070
All starts here, it all starts with you.

00:11:50.070 --> 00:12:08.385
And do your inner work and clear the past and do a fire ceremony because Aries is a fire sign and burn something representative of those exes or those type that you don't want to bring in, and do a little purging ceremony of some sort, especially using fire.

00:12:08.385 --> 00:12:11.331
Just don't burn down the house or the building, you know.

00:12:11.331 --> 00:12:12.491
Give yourself a clean slate.

00:12:12.993 --> 00:12:13.975
Right, I like that.

00:12:13.975 --> 00:12:19.347
And also if you focus on the self-love component, which is hard for people to do.

00:12:19.347 --> 00:12:23.368
But they say that if you can't learn to love yourself, you can't pull in love.

00:12:23.830 --> 00:12:35.193
Self-love, self-worth is huge too, because there's so many especially, I've noticed, with women where they'll keep going back to these dead wood type of men or these types that they know aren't good.

00:12:35.193 --> 00:12:36.850
But why do they do that?

00:12:36.850 --> 00:12:39.594
And that's the whole thing with Mr Unavailable.

00:12:39.594 --> 00:12:43.196
That right, there is a self-worth issue.

00:12:43.745 --> 00:12:51.812
When this episode comes out, there will only be a couple of weeks of Mercury in retrograde, but it does happen three times a year.

00:12:51.812 --> 00:12:55.572
We've got to go to work, we've got to create, we've got to do all the things.

00:12:55.572 --> 00:12:58.186
We have to learn to work with this energy.

00:12:58.807 --> 00:13:08.293
It's worth noting that Mercury retrograde next cycle is going to be from August 5th through August 28th, but this cycle is a little bit complicated.

00:13:08.855 --> 00:13:11.346
And that's in Leo, and then it retrogrades into Virgo.

00:13:11.807 --> 00:13:15.056
It goes retrograde while it's in Virgo and then goes back into Leo.

00:13:15.056 --> 00:13:15.957
Oh interesting.

00:13:19.745 --> 00:13:21.389
And then comes back into Virgo when it's out of retrograde.

00:13:21.389 --> 00:13:22.812
Okay, but Leo's a really creative sign.

00:13:22.812 --> 00:13:26.750
So this is what I'm saying about creativity and I had to stop and think about it.

00:13:26.750 --> 00:13:37.522
Of all the years of me shooting covers and stuff, I had to work with my creativity during all these times and I've had people buy homes and friends do all sorts of things.

00:13:37.522 --> 00:13:40.913
Yeah, take precaution, but life continues on.

00:13:41.254 --> 00:13:42.620
Right and you have to travel.

00:13:42.620 --> 00:13:48.798
You know they say with Mercury retrograde it's not the best time to travel or it can mess with electronics and communication.

00:13:48.798 --> 00:13:54.311
But you and I have special Sanskrit mantras that we chant so that we're not befuddled by that.

00:13:54.311 --> 00:13:58.307
But I also feel like you don't want to put that out as an intention.

00:13:58.307 --> 00:14:07.115
But if something does get a little bit messed up with time schedules, electronics or travel, you can blame it on Mercury retrograde.

00:14:07.725 --> 00:14:08.486
What can we do?

00:14:08.486 --> 00:14:10.711
What committed action can we take?

00:14:10.711 --> 00:14:11.995
What small steps?

00:14:11.995 --> 00:14:18.927
Maybe we can't take big steps right now, in the next two weeks, but we can take a lot of small steps, and small steps lead to big steps.

00:14:18.927 --> 00:14:23.684
So let's get this unstuck, like I feel like this year has been moving so slow.

00:14:23.745 --> 00:14:24.285
Exactly.

00:14:24.285 --> 00:14:35.153
Well, it's going to move fast enough once we get out of that mercury retrograde, once we get out of that Mercury retrograde, which is going to be on the 25th of April.

00:14:35.153 --> 00:14:38.605
But we also have some interesting other transits that are going to help us, especially with relationships.

00:14:38.605 --> 00:14:57.432
We have Venus, the planet of love and pleasure, going home to her home court of Taurus from April 29th through May 23rd, and we're going to have Mars in his home court of Aries from the 30th of April through June 9th.

00:14:57.432 --> 00:15:06.437
So these other planets, in addition to Mercury going direct, are going to jumpstart and they're going to move things, especially relationship stuff.

00:15:06.437 --> 00:15:22.192
And then Mercury will go through the signs Taurus from mid-May, the 15th to June 3rd, and then it gets into a really great sign for connection, the social butterfly sign of Gemini, from June 3rd to June 17th.

00:15:22.192 --> 00:15:29.392
That's going to be a really really good cycle and Venus will go into Gemini from May 23rd through June 17th.

00:15:29.432 --> 00:15:42.937
So it looks like the end of May and June there's a lot of planetary action coming together that is really going to get people out there and it should be a really fun summer, because then we've got it continuing throughout the summer.

00:15:42.937 --> 00:15:46.813
So I think the summer, and I have said that I mean astrologically.

00:15:46.813 --> 00:15:51.615
We said that April would be challenging of all the months and we're only halfway through.

00:15:51.615 --> 00:15:59.850
We still don't know what's to come in the second half and I still think there's going to be some things going on in the second half of April that affect the collective.

00:15:59.850 --> 00:16:06.958
But we do have some nice connectivity with the inner planets Mercury, venus and Mars.

00:16:06.958 --> 00:16:14.347
Remember, women are from Venus and men are from Mars and those two are kicking it up in their home signs.

00:16:14.347 --> 00:16:24.350
So we should see a lot of fun activity and socialization back on track in time for the sun here in the Northern Hemisphere.

00:16:26.453 --> 00:16:31.390
How great would it be to find the love of your life, the man of your dreams.

00:16:31.390 --> 00:16:36.618

I'm Keri Brett and I will be your mentor and friend through this incredible journey.

00:17:40.955 --> 00:17:56.557
So I want to talk about getting moving and the sunshine and doing things that are fun to bring in new opportunities, just feeling better.

00:17:56.557 --> 00:18:03.317
We were really having a hard time with the eclipse, and so we started walking the beach, getting in touch with nature.

00:18:03.317 --> 00:18:05.171
You just came from yoga.

00:18:05.171 --> 00:18:07.832
All these things remove blocks.

00:18:08.513 --> 00:18:10.836
Yes, they do, and you're getting at something.

00:18:10.836 --> 00:18:12.865
Move the energy, whatever that means.

00:18:12.865 --> 00:18:13.407
I mean.

00:18:13.407 --> 00:18:19.428
It is time for spring cleaning, so getting things out of your house that you haven't used.

00:18:19.428 --> 00:18:23.301
Do a little Swedish death clearing, if you're not familiar with that.

00:18:23.301 --> 00:18:31.440
It's basically get rid of anything in your home that you don't want your descendants to have to deal with if you were to die tomorrow.

00:18:31.440 --> 00:18:35.574
It sounds a little dark and dire, but it's actually so energizing.

00:18:35.574 --> 00:18:37.286
I've been actually doing it and I love it.

00:18:37.286 --> 00:18:38.869
And you give things away.

00:18:38.869 --> 00:18:40.614
Do the Native American giveaway.

00:18:40.614 --> 00:18:44.330
A lot of people are trying to sell things on Facebook, marketplace or whatever.

00:18:44.330 --> 00:18:46.496
I always feel like you know what.

00:18:46.496 --> 00:18:53.357
I'd rather give it away to someone or a place that needs it, and when you do that, you open up space.

00:18:53.357 --> 00:18:55.330
And this I want to speak to.

00:18:55.432 --> 00:19:04.670
Astrologically, pluto has been going through Aquarius since January 20th 2024, and will continue for 20 more years.

00:19:04.670 --> 00:19:20.298
There is a time period, though September through November it will backtrack into Capricorn again, which again retrograde planets give you a chance to reassess, review, redo, reorganize, and Pluto is a collective planet.

00:19:20.298 --> 00:19:28.190
But what I am seeing with Pluto and Aquarius you and I being Aquarians is that it's all about making space for the new Make space.

00:19:28.190 --> 00:19:36.734
And it's like that simple feng shui principle If you want to bring a mate in, make sure you have space in your closet for them to hang their clothes.

00:19:36.734 --> 00:19:42.499
And so if you have all your stuff in the closet and all your clothes taking it up, there's no space.

00:19:42.499 --> 00:19:51.752
Also another feng shui principle for a partner make sure, if you're single and you have a double bed or you have your bed, that there's space on it.

00:19:51.752 --> 00:19:52.990
Don't put it up against the wall.

00:19:52.990 --> 00:20:02.153
Have space so that you can access the bed from either side and your partner can access the bed, instead of pushing it against a wall.

00:20:02.565 --> 00:20:14.230
So, there's simple things, energetically, so many of them we can do to create space, to pull a partner in feng shui and vastu, which is the Vedic system, the art of placement.

00:20:14.230 --> 00:20:18.276
These give us great ideas and spring is the time, it's time for spring cleaning.

00:20:18.276 --> 00:20:26.155
So move things around, move furniture around, move your personal energy Release, get rid of things.

00:20:26.155 --> 00:20:30.817
Like Marie Kondo says, if it doesn't give you joy, let it go.

00:20:30.817 --> 00:20:33.933
Another principle of feng shui has to do with clothes.

00:20:33.933 --> 00:20:37.736
If you haven't worn it something in a year, get rid of it and get something new.

00:20:37.736 --> 00:20:46.174
And I think, the other thing about attraction, which is the Venusian principle wear bright colors, especially in the spring and summer.

00:20:46.174 --> 00:21:00.557
We're so used to wearing the dark colors, especially here in New England, but you know, both sexes are attracted to the opposite sex or to a potential partner wearing the bright colors of red or blue or pink.

00:21:01.445 --> 00:21:03.314
What you're talking about is moving the energetic.

00:21:03.314 --> 00:21:05.311
I did all of these things.

00:21:05.311 --> 00:21:07.805
I made space in half the closet.

00:21:07.805 --> 00:21:13.385
I actually even pulled my car up so day so that a car could pull in behind me.

00:21:13.385 --> 00:21:14.808
I mean, I was really extreme.

00:21:14.808 --> 00:21:25.477
I had the love charged up crystals underneath my bed and the other thing that I did a lot was I cleaned and washed my floors manically.

00:21:25.477 --> 00:21:38.596
I don't know why I did that, but I would listen to motivational things and I would get so charged that I really believed in a clean environment and that I was preparing my home for that new person.

00:21:38.596 --> 00:21:44.596
And it worked and it worked and I swear by it and that's why I'm saying this is a really good time.

00:21:44.596 --> 00:21:55.989
Mercury in retro forces us to realign, reorganize, like you said, take a self-audit what can we do energetically to present differently?

00:21:56.530 --> 00:22:09.330
Right, and in Chinese medicine the spring is liver season and what we deal with in the colder months, like in the winter, is sometimes liver stagnation and people feel stuck or depressed, and so the liver likes movement.

00:22:09.330 --> 00:22:19.516
So get out and walk or move things around and move energy and your liver will be happy and also yawn.

00:22:19.516 --> 00:22:24.951
Liver likes yawning, Releasing energy and movement.

00:22:24.951 --> 00:22:32.076
Movement is very important because when you're moving you're clearing and you're clearing space and you're not stuck.

00:22:32.076 --> 00:22:35.515
The planet Pluto as it has changed signs.

00:22:35.515 --> 00:22:40.173
It's in the still, the embryonic degrees, the first couple degrees of Aquarius.

00:22:40.805 --> 00:22:49.373
Pluto is the planet of death, which freaks people out, but it can be not a physical death, a death of a way of being.

00:22:49.373 --> 00:22:51.243
It's a very psychological planet.

00:22:51.243 --> 00:22:53.828
It's death, transformation, rebirth.

00:22:53.828 --> 00:22:57.546
So in order to have a rebirth, we have to let something go.

00:22:57.546 --> 00:22:59.231
It's very psychological.

00:22:59.231 --> 00:23:05.048
It also rules purging, purification and release, and we can do all these things at the same time.

00:23:05.048 --> 00:23:09.169
They're not necessarily in a sequential order, but think about ways that we can purge, purify Again.

00:23:09.169 --> 00:23:09.403
Spring is the same time.

00:23:09.403 --> 00:23:11.968
They're not necessarily in a sequential order, but think about ways that we can purge, purify Again.

00:23:11.968 --> 00:23:15.734
Spring is the natural time to do purification, diets or practices.

00:23:15.734 --> 00:23:22.711
Also, let go, let something that no longer serves you die or, you know, release.

00:23:22.711 --> 00:23:30.032
Let it die, and then transformation can occur and you can have a rebirth, and all of this can be going on at the same time.

00:23:30.599 --> 00:23:45.691
I don't like to see when people are stuck and they're in a rut Like I've had a couple of friends lately who I've been trying to get out of a rut, and they just are not taking anything that I'm dishing out and you become paralyzed in unraveling, in your fear.

00:23:46.160 --> 00:23:53.106
Fear is a big one and a lot of times it's like things that are old thought forms that are running through people's heads.

00:23:53.106 --> 00:24:01.828
A lot of times the stuckness is not in your body, it is in the mind, emotional, body, and so sometimes movement will help.

00:24:01.828 --> 00:24:13.873
I mean, I'm a big yogi for many, many years and yoga to some people is very subtle, but there's all different forms of yoga and I think it moves energy on the body, the mind, the spirit.

00:24:13.873 --> 00:24:35.372
And then we have these 72,000 subtle pathways, called nadis in yogic physiology that can get blocked and as we do practices like yoga, chanting, breath work, pranayama we can move them and I think that's important and yoga is also very powerful because it's an internal practice.

00:24:35.372 --> 00:24:42.853
You'll see what your thought forms are, you'll see and you will feel where you might be stuck, where that emotional stuckness is in your body.

00:24:43.539 --> 00:24:57.453
It's hard to bring in new opportunities and manifest new things when you're in indecision or avoidance and you're just sitting at home watching Netflix and you're not out and about.

00:24:58.060 --> 00:25:01.099
Something else you can do is adjust your diet.

00:25:01.099 --> 00:25:08.910
The conversation I've been having with people is how they're realizing that sugar, first of all, it's one of the biggest addictive substances ever.

00:25:08.910 --> 00:25:14.391
But, like sugar, you have that strong high and then you come down fast.

00:25:14.391 --> 00:25:16.240
But there's other things like caffeine.

00:25:16.240 --> 00:25:24.345
There's so many substances that can give you that momentary high, but then you crash and thus you start getting depressed and stagnated.

00:25:24.345 --> 00:25:41.041
So looking for foods or drinks or supplements or shakes or any kind of nutritional intervention that can give you more consistent energy without ups and downs, I think is huge for people.

00:25:41.343 --> 00:25:49.529
I'm not going to recommend anything because, as a holistic healer of many, many years, everybody's individual and what would work for me may not work for somebody else.

00:25:49.529 --> 00:26:11.733
So this is something people can do in the spring too is like really seek out what will keep you in balance physically, or what diet, health regime, supplements, and then you start feeling better and that's naturally going to attract somebody else to you, because when you feel better about yourself, you're going to radiate that and that vibe goes out and like attracts like.

00:26:11.733 --> 00:26:18.574
So if you're on a health or healing mission or a wellness mission, you're going to attract somebody else who's on the same path.

00:26:19.240 --> 00:26:30.895
When you focus on yourself and you feel happier and you do those small things to uplift your mood, you're just going to attract somebody who's in that same energetic.

00:26:30.895 --> 00:26:32.544
And it's always about the vibe.

00:26:32.544 --> 00:26:36.942
Like Michael Lozier always says look at your vibe, look at your vibration.

00:26:36.942 --> 00:26:45.787
Look at the words you tell yourself, look at the positives of that date, look at the positives of how you look and feel that night.

00:26:45.787 --> 00:26:52.146
Did you say 90% of the things correctly in your mind or are you focusing on the 10% that kind of went south?

00:26:52.146 --> 00:26:59.248
We should use a lot of the good things that are happening astrology-wise and the new moon energy.

00:26:59.248 --> 00:27:03.321
Look for proof, look for things you've manifested before.

00:27:03.321 --> 00:27:09.394
That's a really good tip and one of the things you taught me was be in that energy of love.

00:27:09.394 --> 00:27:18.095
When you are in that energetic of love or serving or helping, it manifests a relationship.

00:27:18.421 --> 00:27:29.103
It's like fake it till you make it so find things to get excited about and even if you have to go back to like when you first were dating let's say your husband or your ex-husband, go back to the romantic part when you first were dating.

00:27:29.103 --> 00:27:36.690
Let's say your husband or your ex-husband, go back to the romantic part when you were having courtship it feels so good and you can kind of reclaim those feelings.

00:27:36.690 --> 00:27:48.292
Don't think about what happens after that, but just go back to when you were being courted or you were first dating somebody that ended up being a relationship and how exciting that felt.

00:27:48.292 --> 00:27:51.730
And springtime naturally brings those feelings out.

00:27:51.730 --> 00:27:53.006
It's kind of interesting.

00:27:53.006 --> 00:28:15.423
I think it has to do with the sun being in the sign Aries of new beginning, and then we have the inner planets of Mercury and Venus and Mars all going through them during the spring March, april and May and you know, I think it may be important for people to know when there are going to be new moons, times and new beginnings from May through August.

00:28:15.423 --> 00:28:16.767
So I'm going to share those dates.

00:28:17.488 --> 00:28:20.280
On May 7th we have a new moon in Taurus.

00:28:20.280 --> 00:28:25.467
Remember Taurus is ruled by Venus, so this can be a love moon for you.

00:28:25.467 --> 00:28:35.486
New beginnings in love, starting on May 7th, and do your rituals and do your prayers, your manifestations.

00:28:35.486 --> 00:28:38.590
New moon on new moons, not on full moons.

00:28:38.590 --> 00:28:42.883
Then we have in June a new moon in Gemini on June 6th.

00:28:42.883 --> 00:28:54.463
This is excellent for socialization and it falls with Venus in Gemini as well and Mercury will be in the sign Gemini at that time.

00:28:54.544 --> 00:28:56.910
This is a really good social time.

00:28:56.910 --> 00:29:01.587
I think June in general is going to be an excellent, especially early June for socialization.

00:29:01.587 --> 00:29:04.421
July 5th we have the new moon in Cancer.

00:29:04.421 --> 00:29:20.625
A lot of water, water activities, being at home, doing things, having people over, having parties maybe, where people who are available and single can meet, is a good idea around that's right around the July 4th weekend, july 5th.

00:29:20.625 --> 00:29:36.327
Then in August we have the exciting new moon in Leo on August 4th, and so this is a really nice jumpstart and it coincides with Mercury going through Leo as well.

00:29:36.327 --> 00:29:46.673
So get out there, go to concerts, go to games, go anywhere where you can meet people and be outside as well and have fun.

00:29:47.339 --> 00:29:53.070
Focus on the things that you like to do and it's just going to uplift your mood and your vibration.

00:29:53.070 --> 00:29:59.613
Even if it's just going out with a friend, that can really help elevate how you feel.

00:29:59.613 --> 00:30:02.310
People are more isolated than you think.

00:30:02.310 --> 00:30:06.734
Right, I really believe that A lot of it has to do with our society being all connected.

00:30:06.895 --> 00:30:21.652
You know everything being done through the computer these days and I think you know it's been a very big convenience, but it has also isolated people and there hasn't been the human interaction that there used to be back in the day.

00:30:21.652 --> 00:30:33.608
There's another planetary aspect worth noting is that the planet Saturn has been going through Pisces since March of 2023, and will go through until 2026.

00:30:33.608 --> 00:30:46.481
And back when that went through in the 90s, it was a very cool social time a lot of new ideas and connections, and certainly the new age movement took off.

00:30:46.481 --> 00:30:47.042
Back then.

00:30:47.042 --> 00:30:47.945
I was part of that.

00:30:47.945 --> 00:30:55.912
We had all kinds of health expos, we used to have bookstores, we used to have a lot of ways to connect, but a lot of people were awakening.

00:30:55.912 --> 00:30:57.887
And now here we are, 29 years later.

00:30:57.887 --> 00:31:03.209
We still have a spiritual awakening, but people aren't getting out there and connecting.

00:31:03.209 --> 00:31:14.563
It's all being done through the internet and I don't think it's the same and I think it takes away from again the human connection.

00:31:14.563 --> 00:31:16.207
And then we have Pluto and Aquarius, which that's all about like-minded people.

00:31:16.227 --> 00:31:19.775
Vibe your tribe and find groups that are interested in what you do.

00:31:19.775 --> 00:31:32.346
I have a client who she got divorced and she just hit the ground running and she joined all kinds of groups to do things that she doesn't even do but like hiking any way to meet people.

00:31:32.346 --> 00:31:33.450
She was doing meetups.

00:31:33.450 --> 00:31:38.409
She doesn't really drink wine, but she's going to these wine tasting groups and she's meeting.

00:31:38.409 --> 00:31:41.884
She's having a lot of luck because of her attitude.

00:31:41.884 --> 00:31:51.243
It's like I'm going to try all of this and I'll meet people who like doing what I do and she's come to like these activities that she really didn't partake in.

00:31:51.243 --> 00:31:59.467
So try something new and try doing something with a group that has an activity that could be really, really fun.

00:31:59.907 --> 00:32:08.844
Yeah, I just did something this week that was I'm going to try it, I'm going to try this once, didn't like it and but I had to try.

00:32:08.844 --> 00:32:14.267
And I think you're not going to know, unless you try, nothing's going to happen by doing nothing.

00:32:14.267 --> 00:32:20.944
So you've got to really give it a shot and try to bring in your new future.

00:32:20.944 --> 00:32:22.990
I think you said something important.

00:32:22.990 --> 00:32:26.083
That client of yours attitude was everything.

00:32:26.724 --> 00:32:28.851
Right, she's like what have I got to lose?

00:32:28.911 --> 00:32:29.432
That's right.

00:32:29.432 --> 00:32:30.275
I love that.

00:32:30.275 --> 00:32:31.117
That's so great.

00:32:31.117 --> 00:32:34.787

00:33:09.863 --> 00:33:20.817
